AOC's Portable 16" USB Monitor

AOC has just announced the new, sleek and portable USB monitor. This lightweight monitor features a very convenient built-in USB port that receives power as well as signal via a single USB cable allowing you to connect your monitor to anything with one, simple cable.

This device does not require a power cord or a VGA cable and is perfect for dual and multi-monitor setup. In addition to functioning as an additional monitor, the device can also be used for mobile presentations.

According to Marketing Manager of AOC Robert Velez, "The USB Monitor showcases AOC's dedication to expanding its display offerings and using the latest technologies to come out with innovative and user friendly products. The USB Monitor is ideal for business presentations, photo frame applications, multiple monitor displays and as a companion monitor for laptop and netbook users who want more out of their computer."

The 16" e1649fwu model offers high image quality with a 50,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast ratio, 5ms response time and a 1,366 x 768 resolution. A nifty built-in Smart Stand also allows you to pivot the monitor and can be stored flush against the back of the monitor when not in use. In addition to that, the stand also supports both portrait and landscape viewing modes.

Despite the fact that there is no power cord, this monitor still functions like any other kind of monitor. It allows you to use it for watching videos, gaming, browsing the internet or anything else you may want or need it for. Full specs for the device include:
